Improving RCPSP algorithms using machine learning methods

For performing technical maintenance, it is important to keep a detailed schedule of resources and temporal constraints. The Resource Constrained Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP) is a well de- fined scheduling model with both resources and temporal constraints. Precedence Constraint Posting (PCP) is a technique to solve the NP-hard RCPSP...

Improving PCP algorithms using flexibility metrics: Creating flexible schedules for Technical Maintenance

In this work we improve on existing scheduling techniques suitable for scheduling problems at the train maintenance provider, NedTrain. Scheduling problems that require flexible solutions can be modeled using variations of the Resource Constraint Project Scheduling Problem (RCPSP), which can be solved using Precedence Constraint Posting (PCP)....
